Established in the province of Verona since 1870, the Zeni family produces most of the classic styles of the region. This "valpo" ripasso, a technique that consists of "passing" the wine through the musts remaining from the vinification of prestigious Amarone wines, offers a caressing and lively mouthfeel. Seductive flavours of dried flowers, cherry pit, plum, sweet spices and cocoa linger on the finish. Pairs perfectly with a lamb and plum tajine.

(Automatically translated) On the nose, discreet aromas of damp undergrowth and black fruits. This Valpolicella Ripasso is round and tasty on the palate with melted tannins. There are notes of cherry, jam, tobacco, leather and wood. A very nice discovery!
